I'm not quite sure if this is the right thing to do but I feel like I need to do it. I slept early last night so I could gather all my energy early in the morning. I'm not only doing this because of my brother. I'm doing this because I think that there is someone trapped inside the curtain. It's probably another spirit. A forgotten spirit that mom told me about during the springtime.

Spring...

I am suddenly brought back to reality by a giant noise. I look back and I can see that something is banging against the curtain from behind. I knew it.. my brother is also seeking for something. All of a sudden, all the creatures of light start to hit the wall. I finally lose it and also start to charge against the wall. I use as much of my strength as i possibly can. I howl to the gods. We put so much effort into our work. It is so painful that I think my head is going to shatter. All of a sudden, it happens.

My most awaited moment actually happens. After all we have done, it finally happens.

The crack is barely even larger than my head and cuts straight through the curtain. I can even feel the cold feeling of darkness through the hole. I don't know if the gods are planning something right now. I don't know how my brother is reacting to this. I'm telling you, the crack may be small but with every minute that passes, it feels as if its getting larger and larger. I don't feel as stunned for breaking it as i was before i did. I'm actually afraid. I don't know whats going to come between us.

I made a terrible mistake.
